Autoresponder issue

[auteur]

Hey gang! Hope all is have a great weekend


I have an issue with an autoresponder that I set up yesterday. I created
'newsletter-subscribe' as a Pop (to solely be used to receive emails for my Opt-in Ezine on Internet Marketing) and then I set up an autoresponder for that Pop. This morning, I received my first sign up and I received the autoresponder info.

Is it because of my mailer form, possibly? People sign up through a form that redirects them and sends them a confirmation email. A sign up email is then forwarded to me. Please advise. I'd love to get this working properly ASAP.

Thanks much,
Elizabeth

Hello auteur,

It is probably a function of your form submission. It is quite common for form mail type scripts to put the webmaster's email address as the SMTP envelope sender, and if that is the case, then the auto-responder would send the email to that address.

I would double-check the configuration of the form mail script and see what it is setting for the SMTP envelope sender. You can view the SMTP envelope sender information by looking at the full email headers of an email message. the part where the email headers have:

Return-Path: <user@example.com>

shows the setting of the SMTP envelope sender. In the above example, it would be

user@example.com

Hope this helps,
